Flexibility to customize
When Validated ID migrated from its former CRM to the Salesforce platform, the company wanted to go one step further, reaching levels of integration never experienced in the organization until then. The objective was being able to manage the entire customer lifecycle since the lead onboard until the customer is invoiced.
Automation saves lost opportunities
Validated ID sales cycle is very standard, starting with a lead, followed by an opportunity creation, a quote and finally a contract and an invoice. However, the processes vary significantly if the opportunity comes from one of its partners.
A 360 degree view of the customer
Having the most complete overview of the customer as possible has become a priority for Validated ID. Pino outlined “one of our obsessions is to have a 360 degree view of everything around the customer and, on this regard, the more integrated everything is, the better”.

Once Validated ID improved its sales processes with Sales Cloud, the company executives were convinced that they needed to strengthen the marketing and communication areas, since they had never used any automation tool beyond some basic email management software.
Respond to unexpected events such as COVID-19

Becoming the backbone
In the near future, Customer Support will also be strengthened thanks to the implementation of Salesforce Communities. Validated ID has already covered the partner area with the most strategic ones, so that they participate and have been integrated almost as if they were part of the company.
